Hi my name is Anne. I had to leave my house because I am Jewish. The Nazis are coming for us and we have to go in hiding. Before we go we will have to put on lots of clothes. On every shirt or coat it has a star on it to let them know that I am Jewish and going in to hiding. We are going into the attic of my dads office. His friends are helping us. We have just been authorized that there will be 3 more people with us, they are the Van Daans. They are also Jewish just like us. The people that are helping us are named Mr.Kraler and Meip. They work with my dad in the office. The bad thing about it is that when there are people in the office we cant use water of walk around very much. My dad said that it is kind of good for me because it don't have to practice the piano or where over shoes anymore. I want to know will my friends miss me. There is a boy there and he has a cat. I had a cat but I had to leave it there with the neighbors I will miss it very much.

Last night I had a nightmare. It was very bad, it was about the green policemen kicked the door in and drug me out the room like they did Jopie. I was very scared, my mom woke me up and told me it was just a dream. They said that is was screaming very loud. I wonder if anyone heard me?. It was the first day of Hanukkah, and we just started lighting the candles. When we finished that Dussel thought we were done but I told him that we weren't done we still had to open presents. Dussel asked us was it like St. Nick, but we told him no. Mom said that we won't have presents this year, I told her that i had presents for everyone.

Everyone was in the front room.

The phone rang for a long time and Dussel was telling my dad that he needs to answer the phone because it might be Meip. She might have something to tell us and it might be very important. When the phone stop ringing we heard the cars stop to a screeching stop and everyone stop doing what we where doing. then we heard something at the door, my dad went to see who it was and it was the police. My dad said after all that time in hiding they finally found us. We think we know who told, it was the man who tried to brake in the building.
